This is inspired by the recent Python Software Foundation / NSF grants situation: https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-funding-statement.html?m=0

Having specific wording on supporting diversity and inclusion greatly helped in the decision making re: getting constrained by grants from the current US political establishment. I think we should have something similar in our mission so that if it ever comes to it a bylaws change would be required to even be able to accept such constraints.
